You were patiently waiting on something, but got tired of waiting or couldn't wait anymore, so you took steps toward your goal (with the help of some friends), and eventually you were ready to "go to battle" or do what needed to be done. This thing you were waiting on somehow set you free either figuratively or literally.

The thing is I am not very adept at reading tea leaves, because I can't often identify legitimate images when looking at the leaves. I mean I can identify shapes or outlines, when someone points them out, but the images do not always jump out at me and say "bird", "house", or "tower". I will look at the leaves and a story or scenario will pop into my head. Generally, if I am close to the person for whom the reading is being conducted, the story will have details, some that make no sense whatsoever, at least not until later. My interpretation of the leaves in Vermillion's pictures was based on the scenario that came to mind. It is not past. I don't see the past. I see present and immediate future. Distant future changes with each choice that we make. I would be interested to know if any similar situation develops.

Oh I agree with you Jevne, I'm lame when it comes to tea leaves, but when I saw her leaves, those were what came to mind. Plus I like that you validated it as present and future, as I saw this also, and tried to formulate my words to give this accuracy. ie: landing or taking off, ie: dispatching a bird. The second one was just what I saw. lol. I'm curious also to see how this situation develops. Regards,Gypsy

My boyfriend of 3 years (known him for 6) is considering going to Ireland for law school... but I don't really consider that as me going to battle or being freed...

I may really be amiss with this, but I'll take my knocks. Ms. ~V~, the boyfriend is considering going to Ireland for law school? Is that the same kind of law they practise where you reside? My understanding is they still initiate Parlimentary Procedures in Ireland, ie: Barristers and Soliciters........ Obviously somebody here knows the particulars, I sure don't, I'm just surmizing. However with your numbers skill within your job, you mentioned the tax season on a few posts, and your status. Take it from me, I love/loved Ireland, been there countless times, my crew had to drag my arse every time kicking and screaming when we had to fly out and back to the U.S. If I could of found a way to make a living there, I would of stayed in a heart beat. You have skills, you're young, and those skills, can take you anywhere!!!!

If you don't resonate with being " freed ", perhaps you would entertain, that you are the one, initiating the freedom? Or you are the precipice on which the bird is taking off or landing. Makes me want to play with my own tea leaves, as I'm not so good at reading them, but it's good practice to say the least.

It is a great place here, we live near the border with the rest of Ireland, and its brilliant - very laid back - even the cities run at snails pace! Dublin is meant to be a great city to study in. I know from experience that the bars are many and very lively!

The only down side at the moment is that Ireland is in a big recession, and inflation is growing, so things like fuel, heating and food are starting to rise fast. But isn't everywhere! LOL!

Its much harder getting work, but on the plus side though, businesses still need people to sort out the money end (more now than ever) so probably a plus for your jobs skills. And temp agencies are a good way to get into the job market.

Figure crouching, possibly with a weapon, possibly an arrow, bird, or butterfly not far off?

~V~

I know its a bit late for me to be saying what they look like lol! but the third one has always struck me as a woman, crouching in the wind and rain, pulling on her umberella, with a newspaper whizzing past. Bit of a Mary Poppins thing going on.

Great post! Very straightforward. I tend to always go with my initial feelings of what the symbols mean as well. Sometimes I have a feeling to just trust what I believe, trust what the symbol meanings are, or consider both and interpret them both with each other. I also go into a semi trance-induced state (as well as incorporating other practices) when doing any sort of divination so I can connect with the spirits/make sure I'm getting an accurate reading that is influenced by the spirits.

CG, the civil law programs are similar enough here and there for him to write the bar back here in Canada when he got back. At work, I am simply a receptionist. I am still trying to find my way in life and it's getting tough! I also did not make clear in the post that if he went to Ireland, that I would not be going with him.

Hope you find a resolution to your dilema!

He would be staying in the residence, so he wouldn't have to worry too much about cost of living besides paying for residence and transportation. He is looking to go to Galway.

Galway is a great place, there is a big festival there every year too - its much smaller, and quainter than Dublin too, and close to loads of beaches!

I tried to read my tea leaves yesterday, as I got some yummy English Breakfast Tea, on my visit to my Sisters. Well damn..... it said to put in a teaspoon, and I thought I followed the directions, however the tea baloooooned up so much, I had this ever so gnarly looking MESS at the bottom of my cup. When I turned it over it just plopped out like some huge mountainous gunk !

Upon having coffee now today, there were some loose grounds, as we grind our own, and what appeared to me at the bottom of my cup was a Dragon sitting upright on his haunches with a long barbed tail. Anybody wanna decifer that for me? I didn't see that reptile in the list so nicely made by Tana and McDee.

I'm not great at readings, but dragons always bring to mind creation through destruction for me, because of their association with fire - being fire-breathing and all. Just the first thing that comes to mind...
